Gunther,
The feast sounds like it will be truly wonderful. Who do we contact
for reservations? (Since I'll forget to look it up by the time I get
home to my Black Star.)

Subject: ANST - Steppes 12th Night
Good Greetings All,
Well Steppes 12th Night is this weekend and since no feast menu has
been posted
I will list the tentative menu.
Since the Gulf War Artisans finalists will be chosen at this event and
also since
there has been new interest in period foods I have created this meal
in the sense
of an A&S entry, even though it isn't one.
The feast will be in three courses. It is arranged as many period
feasts were,
each course is a complete "meal" in itself, each becoming fancier and
smaller.
Also, since by the third course most people are wanting to go and
socialize instead
of sitting around for the next course, the third course will be
platters of finger
foods placed to the side so the revelers may nibble at their leisure
for the
remainder of the evening. This was also done in period.
We are working on a handout showing the menu including each dish's
ingredients and
the documentation for the recipe as well as any special notes.
On the table: Bread and honey.
1st Course:
Roast Pork with Garlic/Pepper sauce & Strawberry sauce.
Saffron Rice
Lombardy Brewet (like a thick chicken stew) in bread bowls.
A tart of Carrot & Parsnip.
Apple slices battered and griddled.
2nd Course:
Beef in a spiced broth.
Chicken in citrus sauce.
Mushroom pasty.
Peascods in butter.
Lentil salad.
Boiled cream tart.
Platters:
Cuskynoles (a fruit & nut ravioli)
Cheese toasts
Dates, Apples, Pears, etc...
I may not be providing any drinks so it would be a good idea to bring
some of your own, just in case.
I hope y'all like it. I'm cooking for 400 so everybody's welcome.
Also anyone who is serving can sign up at the door and get in for half
price.
All servers and those who will be busy during the feast will be fed
beforehand.
I hope to see you there!
Yers,
Gunthar
